Hi! I recently got my first audition in my inbox for Actors Access and have a question: do I only press confirm after I’ve uploaded my media?

When I think of an actor on set or a night shoot, I think of the cast in big puffer coats (maybe because I’m British and it’s usually always grey and wet here) Are they provided these? Just a fun litttle question from a curious girl

I see so many actors obsessing over lighting, camera quality, backgrounds, framing, depth, and cinematography in their auditions. And honestly, I don’t understand why you put yourselves through all of this. None of this has ever been an actor’s job. I have yet to see an actor get cast because their audition had perfect…

Hi all! So, I got an audition for a feature film and did my usual script analysis and note-taking. The breakdown also included the full script, so I decided to read through it.

Question for professional theater actors: lets say someone hypothetically just did an audition and at the end, the EP told them 'you definitely have what it takes' and the whole panel clapped after their audition.
